Fancast: Free Source of Full Length Movies and TV Shows

Like the popular Hulu, Fancast is a new site that offers full movies and entire TV episodes from the convenience and comfort of your computer. Fancast debuted in January 2008 and now has more than 10,000 hours of online video programming including more than 60,000 videos and over 13,000 full-length shows with more are being added every day! With the 1 movie at a time option from Netflix, I sometimes find myself wanting something else to watch besides what is on our DVR. Fancast enables me to search for full length movies with their search feature or by genre or look through an alphabetical list

 The Real Blogalicious Recap

This time last week I was eagerly anticipating Blogalicious and almost a week after it started, I am sad that it is over. The conference was absolutely amazing and I am so thrilled that I got to be a part of this groundbreaking experience where a community of women came together to talk about their experience and all aspects of blogging. The two predominant themes that I heard echoed over and over again in different sessions, keynotes, and plenary sessions were determining your own goals and being passionate about what you do

 Support Breast Cancer Awareness – Buy PINK Medical Products!

Pink is now the official color of Fall.  Fine by me, as long as the awareness of breast cancer and the huge outpouring of charity in October helps save lives.  Allegro sells several products that support breast cancer research and breast charities with donations for every product purchased.  If you are in the market for one of these products, for you or a friend, now is the time to buy – and buy pink. Allegro’s Breast Cancer Awareness Products       Breast Cancer Awareness Pink 4 Wheeled Rollator – My favorite product.  It has all the bells and whistles (flip-up padded seat, basket, lightweight aluminum) plus, with every purchase $10 is donated to the National Breast Cancer Foundation .  The foundation works to save lives through awareness of breast cancer and by providing mammograms for those in need.    Generation Pink Vinyl Powder-Free Exam Gloves – Patented 3G technology with great flexibility and protection.  Latex-free.  Every health care facility should be using these.  For every case sold during the month of October, $1 goes to the National Breast Cancer Foundation .

 Using Google Scholar

By Gena Philibert Ortega Google Scholar, http://scholar.google.com, is a specialty search engine powered by Google that you can use to find scholarly type articles and books on topics related to history and genealogy . While you are less likely to find an article or book about your particular ancestor, you may just find an article about the place, era, occupation, or religion of your ancestor which can then help you learn more about their life. According to Google Scholar’s about page,”you can search across many disciplines and sources: peer-reviewed papers, thesis, books, abstracts and articles, from academic publishers, professional societies, preprint repositories, universities and other scholarly organizations

 Websites of the Week: Donating to Breast Cancer Related Causes

October may be breast cancer awareness month but really, this is an issue that needs to be at the forefront every day of each month in the year. In my last post about breast cancer, I mentioned shopping pink and supporting companies who are donating a portion of their proceeds towards breast cancer awareness. Sure pink products are great but what has troubled me about supporting the cause is how little money actually goes towards breast cancer related causes.

 Buyers Guide for Urinary Incontinence Products

Urinary incontinence (UI) is defined as the involuntary release of urine.  It’s way more common than you might think and no matter what your age, it is treatable or can be managed.  The good thing is that it is not a serious health problem, but it can be embarrassing.  UI occurs twice as often in women as men, and older women experience UI more often than younger.   If you’re looking for urinary incontinence products as a temporary fix – while waiting for surgery or other treatment – or you’re looking for a long-term option, Allegro has a wide variety of products to make you as comfortable and carefree as possible.  I’ve geared this Buyer’s Guide more towards women because of its prevalence,  but we carry hundreds of products designed for male incontinence as well.

 Top 10 Arthritis Products

Getting older is a blessing, for sure, but even longevity has its price.  Creaky, sore joints.  Sometimes when I stand up I sound like an old rocking chair making a bag of popcorn.  And how about when it rains, or your hands get cold and you can barely bend your fingers? For some, these are just minor aches and pains, but for others they are the result of Osteoarthritis, or Degenerative Joint Disease (DJD) –  the most common type of arthritis.  There are many types of arthritis, some more debilitating than others. Did you know that arthritis affects millions of Americans after the age 50 and women are more often effected by arthritis?

 Why You Should Consider Yoga

If you are looking for something to relax you, make you feel whole, balanced, flexible and pain free, you should try yoga.  If you’ve done traditional exercise and got burned out or frustrated with your results, yoga may be the way to go.  Middle aged and starting to “feel your age”?  Try adding a gentle yoga stretch to your mornings and evenings and see what happens.   Its effects may be gradual, but yoga, when practiced regularly, will rock your mind, body and spirit.
